Chapter 7. Skillful negotiations

Ouyang Hao pushed the door in, and the room was furnished in an office, and in front of an L-shaped desk sat a very young-looking woman.

Ouyang Hao's first feeling was that it was very strange that such a young woman could lead so many people.

"You may be seated." The young woman smiled, pointed to the chair in front of him, and then said to the man in the straw hat, "Go make a cup of tea." ”

"Yes, Sister Jane." The man in the straw hat went out. The two men with guns who followed stood in the doorway.

Ouyang Hao walked to a leather chair in front of the office desk and sat down, he looked at the young woman in front of him, with long black hair, melon seed face, big eyes, a very straight nose, small lips, and very white skin, a standard beauty.

"Sister Zhen, hello, my name is Ouyang Hao." Ouyang Hao said with a smile.

"It turned out to be Brother Ouyang, it's nice to meet you, I don't know if you need my help when you come this time?" Sister Zhen said with a smile.

Ouyang Hao smiled and said: "Indeed, it is not easy to know in the last days, in fact, you should also know the purpose of my visit this time, right?" ”

Sister Zhen smiled and said, "I don't know, can Brother Ouyang make it clearer?" ”

Ouyang Hao thought to himself that this woman was really not simple, she could hold her breath, she obviously knew what she meant, he took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, smoked one and handed it to Sister Zhen and said, "Sister Zhen, do you smoke?" ”

"Oh, cigarettes? Thank you. Sister Zhen took the cigarette and glanced at it, and said with a smile: "China, the cigarette is good, and now it may be risking your life to find the cigarette." ”

Ouyang Hao took out a lighter and went over to light it for Sister Zhen, and then lit one himself, at this time the straw hat man came over with a cup of tea, and Ouyang Hao said thank you.

"Haven't eaten yet?" Sister Zhen said suddenly.

"Ah, not yet, why does Sister Zhen want to invite me to dinner?" Ouyang Hao replied with a smile.

Sister Zhen smiled: "Of course, it is a guest from afar, and you have also seen it here, everything is lacking, that is, there is no shortage of food, there is no big fish and meat, and the rice is absolutely full." ”

"Then I'm going to have a full meal, I haven't had a full meal since the end came." Ouyang Hao said with a smile.

Sister Zhen said to the straw hat man: "Wait a minute, I'm going to invite Brother Ouyang and them to dinner, you go and say hello to the masters, let them prepare first, we can't neglect the guests." ”

"I know, don't worry, Sister Zhen." The straw hat man said.

"I'll eat it later." Sister Zhen said with a smile.

Ouyang Hao said with a smile: "I really can't see it, Sister Zhen will definitely not be older than me, but a group of men are actually obedient to you, which is very admirable." ”

Sister Zhen said with a smile: "Brother Ouyang, you are joking, our people here are just getting together to survive, let's continue the topic just now, the purpose of Brother Ouyang's trip?" ”

Ouyang Hao nodded and said, "I might as well say it directly, in fact, the purpose of my visit this time is your food here." ”

After seeing Sister Zhen nodded, Ouyang Hao continued: "Our base is in a small town dozens of kilometers ahead, called Pingshan Town, where there are soldiers and civilians, all of whom are gathered by survivors from all over the world, and there are about 4,000 people in total. ”

"You're also a survivor? Aren't you a member of the military? Sister Zhen asked strangely.

Ouyang Hao nodded and said: "I was originally a civilian, but then the military lacked manpower, and I used to be a soldier, so I joined the army, and the food for joining the army can be guaranteed, in order to be fed, in order to live, so my friends and I volunteered to join the army." ”

Sister Zhen also took out half a pack of cigarettes, smoked one and handed it to Ouyang Hao and said, "Don't dislike my cigarettes." ”

"How could it be, it's all the same." Ouyang Hao took it and glanced at it casually, it was only five yuan of Huangshan.

Ouyang Hao continued: "I thought that it would not be a problem to join the army to eat, but our base was crowded, and the original residents of the town had no food in stock, so they quickly ran out, and then we organized people to go to the surrounding villages to search for food. ”

Sister Zhen said: "It seems that the leaders in your base trust you very much, and you will do such an important task." ”

"Maybe it's just using me as cannon fodder." Ouyang Hao continued: "Later, the search of the village was carried out several times, and a lot of soldiers died, but the food brought back can also be dealt with for a while, of course, it is far from enough, so a few days ago, the army sent a lot of reconnaissance teams to the surrounding area to investigate, and one of them came to your door, which you also know." ”

Sister Zhen nodded, smiled and said, "Yes, after that time, I knew that this matter would definitely not be over so soon, no, Brother Ouyang is here today." ”

"Yes, the purpose of my visit today is to ask Sister Zhen for some food to go back. I hope Sister Zhen can fulfill me. Ouyang Hao said with a smile.

Sister Zhen thought for a while, and then said: "Grain, I do have a lot of food here, and the people here can't eat until they are moldy, but I took this grain warehouse, you must know that there were a lot of zombies in it at that time, what I worked hard to obtain, you want to leave with a word?" ”

Ouyang Hao said with a smile: "I'm just going to walk a small part. ”

"And what if I don't agree?" Sister Zhen suddenly put away her smile and said.

Ouyang Hao was stunned for a moment, then slowly leaned back on the back of the leather chair, and said slowly: "If Sister Zhen really disagrees, in the end, it will be my little brother who is just unlucky." ”

Sister Zhen said: "What did Brother Ouyang say about this? ”

Ouyang Hao said with a smile: "If I go back empty-handed, the big brothers at the base will definitely not be happy, the army is estimated to be sent over, I am the commander of the combat section of the base, and in the end I don't want to bring the troops over, you say, let's talk well, let me fight you, I can't do anything like that." ”

"Even if you bring troops to fight, you won't get food, I have a big barrel of gasoline in every grain warehouse, and there are special guards for 24 hours, if someone comes and forcibly captures it, then the final result is that everyone has no food."

Sister Zhen said in a deep voice.

Ouyang Hao said: "Then what if it wasn't a human being? But what if zombies come to attack you? ”

"Mourning...... The living dead, you say, out there? What's there to be afraid of, I killed all the zombies here with a machete, they can climb over the wall. Sister Zhen said with a smile.

"Looks like you don't know much about them." Ouyang Hao shook his head with a smile and said, "I'll show you something." Then he took out a stack of papers from his jacket pocket and handed it to Sister Zhen.

Sister Zhen took the paper, opened it and looked at it, was stunned, and asked casually, "What's on this?" ”

Ouyang Hao said: "This is a photo I printed, the photo was taken by survivors all over the world, the monster on these photos is a mutated form of a zombie, there is a note below the photo, you can take a look at it first." ”

Sister Zhen carefully looked at a few photos and the text explanation below the photos, and after reading it, Sister Zhen's expression was a little surprised, and she asked Ouyang Hao: "Is this really the change of those living dead outside?" ”

"That's right, the wall can withstand ordinary zombies, but it's not necessarily for such mutants, at least the T1 form I've seen can jump and climb walls, and T4 can even repair its body automatically." Ouyang Hao said.

Sister Zhen said in surprise: "Listen to your tone, have you ever touched these things?" ”

"Yes, I've come across two of them in the photo, and there are other forms that aren't even in the photo." Ouyang Hao said, and then he told Sister Zhen about some of their experiences with T1 and T4.

Sister Zhen was very surprised when she heard this, she really didn't expect that there were mutated monsters outside in addition to the living dead, she thought that she could guard the food and eat for a lifetime, it seems that she vaguely felt that this might not be realistic.

"I need weapons, if you want food, exchange them for them." Sister Zhen suddenly said in a deep voice.

Ouyang Hao smiled and said, "Weapons are actually lacking in ourselves, but since Sister Zhen said so, let's talk about it, how many weapons and ammunition do you need?" ”

"I don't know much about this weapon or anything, but at least everyone has to have weapons and ammunition anyway." Sister Zhen said.

Ouyang Hao pretended to be very strange and asked, "You don't understand?" But I see a lot of your people have guns. ”

"It was only picked up from the corpses of nearby soldiers, some villagers have their own shotguns, and there was originally a security department here, with about 20 guns in it, but there were very few bullets." Sister Jane said, "So I need weapons and ammunition. ”

Ouyang Hao nodded and said, "Sister Zhen said that each person has a weapon, so I don't know how many survivors you have here." ”

"I'm here, there are probably more than 260 people." Sister Zhen said.

Ouyang Hao thought to himself that I was tricked out now, such a small number of people, and there are no weapons, if you really want to take someone to beat you, it is a matter of minutes, but forget it, there is no need for this. Ouyang Hao said with a smile: "Then I'll listen to Sister Zhen, I'll go back and exchange weapons and ammunition with you for food, I don't know how much food I can exchange for us?" ”

"How much you need, you tell me." Sister Zhen said.

"Naturally, I want a lot, I want 10,000 tons of grain." Ouyang Hao said with a smile.

Sister Zhen laughed when she heard this, and said, "Brother Ouyang is really able to joke, 10,000 tons, 10,000 tons of grain, you have to move it for a long time." ”

"I'm not joking, but don't worry, I won't let you suffer, I'll give you a set of weapons and ammunition, if you run out, I'll find a way to replenish you, do you think that's okay?" Ouyang Hao said.

Sister Zhen thought for a moment and said, "Why should I believe you? ”

Ouyang Hao said with a smile: "The transaction is originally based on mutual trust, but it's normal that you don't believe me, so let's do it, I'll stay until this transaction is completed, and then I will leave, do you think it's okay?" ”

Sister Zhen took the cigarette handed over by Ouyang Hao, lit it and began to bow her head in contemplation, after half a cigarette, she slowly raised her head and said with a smile: "We don't have any good dishes here to greet you, only rice and steamed buns, if you don't dislike it, just stay here for a few days." ”
